Porsche just buried its prettiest EVs, and nobody seems to care
Sport Turismo and Cross Turismo are gone from the US. Two electric wagons, one verdict — nobody wanted them. The numbers tell a brutal story.
Porsche has just buried its most beautiful electric cars. Quietly, no farewell speeches, no anniversary edition. Just — gone. The US market has lost the two most unusual Taycans at once: Sport Turismo and Cross Turismo. Two electric wagons, two visions of what a luxury long-roof could be. And neither was needed.
The news was confirmed by Porsche. The Sport Turismo leaned closer to a classic wagon — clean, elongated silhouette, zero compromises. The Cross Turismo came with a raised stance and plastic cladding, ready for light off-road duty and snowy Colorado driveways. Now in the US, the Taycan exists only as a four-door sedan. And the reason is painfully simple — the numbers.
In 2023, Porsche sold 7,530 Taycans in the US. In 2024 — already 4,747. In 2025 — 4,142. And in the first three months of 2026 — just 607 units against 1,019 in the same period a year earlier. A knockout fall. For an expensive electric model that also comes in three different body styles, those numbers are a death sentence.
The Taycan sedan in the US lives on, for now. The base version for the current model year starts at $111,900. The electric motor delivers up to 402 hp, with 0–60 mph in 4.5 seconds with Launch Control. Climbing up the ladder: Taycan 4 from $116,000, Taycan 4S from $131,800 and already 536 hp in Overboost mode.
Higher up — faster and meaner. Taycan GTS with 690 hp, Turbo with 871 hp, Turbo S with 938 hp and the absolute peak — the Turbo GT at 1,019 hp. 0–60 in 2.1–2.2 seconds. The starting price for the fastest version is $243,700. There aren’t many cars in the world capable of that kind of launch. But none of them will be wagons. Not anymore.
And this isn’t the first time. Porsche buried the Panamera Sport Turismo a few years earlier — for exactly the same reason. American buyers stubbornly choose crossovers and SUVs, and the long roof remains an enthusiast quirk that doesn’t make money. History repeats itself, and the ending is the same.
The decision rings especially loud against the fresh debut of the 2027 Taycan — with a larger battery pack and a new simulated-shift system in the spirit of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. The updated sedan gets everything fans have been asking for. The wagons get the status of “was and ended.” A beautiful idea the market refused to back.
